Description

@godwinameh

Issue: Inconsistent console.log usage throughout the codebase without proper logging levels, structured formatting, or production filtering mechanisms.

Business Impact:

  • Debugging difficulties in development and production environments
  • Potential information leakage exposing sensitive data in production
  • Poor monitoring and observability capabilities
  • Inefficient troubleshooting and incident response

Technical Requirements:

  • Implement structured logging utility with proper log levels (debug, info, warn, error)
  • Add production filtering to prevent sensitive data exposure
  • Establish consistent logging patterns across the application
  • Add correlation IDs for request tracking
  • Implement log aggregation and monitoring integration

Files: Multiple files with console statements, new logging utility
Acceptance Criteria:

  • Structured logging utility implemented and consistently used
  • Log levels properly configured for different environments
  • Sensitive data filtered from production logs
  • Correlation IDs added for request tracking
  • Log aggregation integrated with monitoring systems
  • Console.log statements replaced with proper logging calls
  • Performance impact of logging is minimal (<2% overhead)
  • Log retention and rotation policies established
